Arrive
Ten minutes of nothing. The room is sniffed, the table is ignored, and we talk about the coat.
Individual dog training and loving boarding, in the hills above the lake.
Book a conversation →Training notes, boarding dates and your dog's progress — in one place.
Salons run on throughput: cages, dryer boxes, four dogs in the room. We run on the opposite — one dog, one pair of hands, and the time it actually takes.
No waiting in a crate, no strangers barking two metres away. Your dog arrives, is groomed, and goes home.
Everything is towel- and hand-dried at low heat. It takes longer. It is also the single biggest reason dogs come to hate grooming.
If your dog needs to get off the table and shake it out, they get off the table. The session waits.
Reading stress signals is a training skill. We stop before a dog has to tell us loudly — and we tell you what we saw.
Prices are by coat and condition, not by breed. Nails, ears and a written note are always included. No add-ons, no surprise fees.
Bath, hand-dry, thorough brush-out, nails and ears. About an hour. For coats that don't need cutting.
Check, bath, hand-dry, scissor or clipper cut, nails, ears — ninety minutes with breaks where your dog needs them.
Thirty minutes of table, brush, dryer noise and paws in hands. No cut. Just a good first memory.
A nervous dog cannot be groomed well, however skilled the hands. So the first session is always shorter, quieter, and about trust — not the finish.
Coat type, skin history, past grooming experiences — good and bad. Send a photo of the coat if you like.
We do what the dog is comfortable with and stop there. You get an honest read on how it went.
Bring nothing but the dog. You'll get a short note with the coat's next date when you collect.
Regular dogs keep the same slot. Coats stay manageable, sessions stay short, and the dog knows the room.
